The Armed Forces Covenant Fund - how to raise awareness of the ‘Armed Forces community & the Armed Forces Covenant’
Warwickshire County Council have developed an e-learning training module designed to raise awareness of the Armed Forces community and the Armed Forces Covenant, using a grant from the Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust.
Aimed at public and third sector staff across the country who are likely to engage with the Armed Forces Community, the new free e-learning gives an overview of:
- Who the Armed Forces Community are and what challenges they face.
- What the Armed Forces do on our behalf.
- What the Armed Forces Covenant is and how it can support personnel, veterans and their families.
The Armed Forces Covenant Fund - New 'Veterans' Places, Pathways and People Programme' guide launched
A new guide has been launched to raise awareness of the 10 portfolios that have received major grants and their work, which will take place over the next two years.

Issue affecting Pinnacle appointments in the SE and SW regions + complaints and compensation in general
Last week we alerted you to an urgent issue where VIVO’s system was not receiving appointments being transferred by Pinnacle. Since then, we have worked hard with our suppliers to understand the causes, reduce the impact on families and find a resolution.
Unfortunately, the issues are impacting families through missed appointments, and we understand how frustrating this is for families.
VIVO has reported 1733 missed appointments due to this issue that have affected 1125 families. The technical teams have identified the causes of the problem and fixes are currently being deployed. While it will take a few days to permanently fix the underlying issue, a business continuity plan (BCP) has been implemented with a temporary solution while the permanent solution is put in place. Early feedback suggests this has significantly reduced but we aim to eliminate it entirely. Therefore, further measures have been agreed with immediate effect to strengthen this BCP. The Pinnacle team at the National Service Centre are supporting by providing information across to the VIVO such that checks can be made to prevent further missed appointments.
